X67 Help

[troutperchbeeman]

I have an X67 that i really like. The problem is that it stoped giving me a read of depth, it just flashes at 0.0. Sometimes I can still bottom and my jig down there but not alway. I thought my battery was dieing but even after a good charge and a 13V reading it is still doing the samething. My buddy suggested it might be the transducer what do u guys think? I don't want to shell out the money for a new ducer if the whole unit is bad. It is only a couple of years old.. Any info would be great. Thanks

Have you tried "Default Reset"?

also make sure that your depth range is set appropriately ie; if you are in 30 feet of water make sure that your range is set atleast to 30. I have found that if I dont do that I may be in 30 feet of water but it will only read like 2.5feet, change the range and its back to normal.

I called Lawrence and they said it sounds like a bad transducer.. That will be $80.36 for a new one. Plus shipping **censored**.. Might as well go buy a new unit. So i asked about the whole little ice fishing setup and they said it would $160 push $25 for s&h.. I asked if I could get it locally at Gander or Bass pro they said yes.. So i call GM and BP and they don't carry it and haven't all year. I am getting frustrated... If it was not such a critical piece of equipment I would go with out, but I have grown dependent on it...

I'm in the same boat with mine too. I even asked Cabela's to order me one since I have Cabela's GC's that I can't find a use for, I've been waiting over a week for an answer.

Uh Oh - I get my X67c in the mail today. 

Should I be scouting backup transducers already?

They aren't all bad and the bad ones seem to have started out working well. If you do have issues make sure that you follow up on it right away, Lowrance c/s usually takes a few hours.
